Much better :)
WORTH IT$7,100
So I had my follow up appointment yesterday from my bleeding and everything has healed back up!!! Yea, I was so nervous but he says the extra support from the steristrips and rest helped a lot. I have the all clear to get back to massaging, applying scar cream and sleeping in my bed!!!
Currently 3 weeks out from surgery. Next appointment will be a little over 6 weeks from surgery to take pictures!!!

Well it’s been a while and a few things have happened. I rested like I was ordered to do and for some weird reason my left boob decided it wanted to flare up. It has always been the more tight/hard boob to begin with but one morning I woke up and I was bleeding from my incision. I called Dr. Robbin 6 am on vacation (sorry) and he was super sweet. He said he wasn’t quite sure but I needed to get to the clinic when it opened. I placed bandages on it went to work.
Went to clinic and it looks like I had a hematoma that was finding its way out from with a weak spot from inner stitch. More than likely the reason why I was so hard/tight. They saw no apparent hole so they steri stripped the whole incision up and I have an appointment with him this Thursday.
So to top every thing off I strained my right top part of my pec muscle and now have a lovely bruise....
I have been order to stop all massages until I see Dr. Robbins!
Beauty is pain :)

Back home resting
Why hello hello!!! I had my post op appointment today and it didn’t go as I had planned.
I went back to work ( tues) thinking that my desk job didn’t really require a lot out of me I was wrong. I had a hard time breathing (just like taking a good deep breath) all through out the day. I was very exhausted by 10 am. Well and I was only taking 600mg of ibuprofen which wasn’t cutting it. I went home by noon took pain meds and sleeping like a baby. Wednesday was a little better and I was able to stay at work till 4:30 because I didn’t want to drive through rush hour. I was sleeping by 7:30pm out for the night.
Today, my nurses eyes told me that something wasn’t quite right when she took a look today. I was nervous. She said I am riding way to high and should have dropped some since surgery. Dr. Robbins came in and was very serious about my swelling and said there is “some” swelling after surgery then there is extreme swelling. That is where I am at. My sternum swelling is a concern because it is effecting my breathing. He ordered me to go straight home, pain meds, ice for sure and pretty much “bed rest.”
He said just because of how small I am in diameter and the size 485cc we went with the swelling can happen but my body needs complete rest.
The nurse clipped the 2 stitches and went though the massaging techniques and ordered me the scar cream!
Happy healing! Beauty is pain for a little while :)

To help with the sternal swelling that I had, I used my thumb to "massage" between my implants, just pressed my thumb up and down my sternum. It's uncomfortable but it seemed to help quite a bit.
Thank you! I tried it and yes uncomfortable but it worked!!!!
Wow! That's crazy! How are you doing now? Hoping all is healing well:)
